Hi..what i recommend you is not to worry and wait for your menses first..light brown discharge may be normal, because of ovulation most probably..in case you miss your periods, take a urine pregnancy test by self at home.
Sexual intercourse on the 8th day of your cycle has a borderline risk of pregnancy..so its better that in future you either use condoms or take an emergency pill at least ( not regularly) after performing sex irrespective of the day of the cycle..
