Hello,
Thanks for the query.
It is absolutely possible that you may be pregnant.
The main reasons for this negative pregnancy test,in spite of being pregnant,could be
Miscalculating your period date
Delayed implantation after conception
Expired pregnancy kit
Diluted urine for test

I would advise you to wait for a week more and get your pregnancy test done properly.If it is still negative then you may consult your doctor and try to find the cause for missed period.
The causes for missed or delayed periods could be
Stress
Overweight or underweight
Thyroid disorders
Anemia
Taking birth control medications

A proper physical examination by your doctor and few blood tests shall clear the issue and tell the cause for your delayed periods.

I hope to have answered your query however you may revert to me for any further query.

Best of luck
Thanks
