I've been taking birth control for about 2 and a half years. And unfortunately I forget to take it in the morning quit a bit so I take it that night. That last to months my period has been 2 days late, very light and super short. Could I be pregnant?

When you are on birth control, your period can come any time during your placebo week, even the last few days.

Bc does make periods shorter and lighter, so that is an easy explanation..

Take a pregnancy test if you have concerns, bc does not affect them at all.
