Sometimes the birth control pill can make your period so light, it doesn't come at all. If you used the pill correctly the month before, there's no cause for concern.
As long as you did not skip any of the "active" pills in the packet, you are protected from pregnancy every day - including the week of your period and while taking the "inactive" sugar pills.
Start your new packet on schedule.

Can you skip a period while taking birth control?
Yes you can, with no increased risk of pregnancy or other complications, except for possible unscheduled bleeding or spotting. Skipping your period by starting the next pack early does not increase the risk of pregnancy, and may even decrease the risk. Just skip the sugar/placebo pills the last week and start a new pack of active pills and you won't get your period.
The "special" birth control pills for skipping periods are not special at all. They are just typical birth control pills that have been on the market for years, but were repackaged in a three-month package with eleven weeks of active pills and one week, of placebo pills instead of the typical three-and-one pattern. You can do this with any type of pill, although it's most effective with monophasic pills instead of those with three different hormone doses.

Can going off the pill make your period late?
Yes, your period can be late when coming off hormonal birth control pills.
Hormonal birth control works by suppressing your menstrual cycles so that you no longer ovulate and thus you also no longer menstruate - bleeding you experience on the pill is a withdrawal bleed caused by the drop in synthetic hormones when going from active to inactive pills. When you come off the pill your body has to regulate itself again and reestablish your menstrual cycle, it can take up to twelve months for cycles to regulate which can include late or absent periods the first three months. Remember too that your period won't come at the same time as your withdrawal bleeds.
Yes, and so can pregnancy resulting from going off the pill, so if you're at risk for pregnancy, get a pregnancy test.
Can you change the day to start a new pack of birth-control?
Yes, you can. You do so by starting the new pack before you've been through all the placebos, or "sugar" pills. For instance if you're a Sunday start, and want to start the pills on Wednesday, you'll finish the active pills in your current pack. Then take a placebo pill on Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday of your period week. On Wednesday, you'll start the new pack. (If you're worried about how the day of the week labels on the pills are going to work, and can't figure it out, just bring the pack in to your pharmacy and they'll show you how to relabel them.)
The important principle is to never have more than seven pill-free days. Fewer is OK.
