Yes, it is possible that you could be pregnant. See what happens when you expect your period. If it is late, give it several extra days and then try a pregnancy test if necessary.

Depending on the pill you are using, you would need at least a week of consistent use, if not more, to be considered protected. Even then, pregnancy can be possible since no form of birth control will be 100% effective even when used correctly.

One way to help you remember your pills is to set your phone alarm or a watch alarm for a convenient time to take a pill. If it becomes too difficult to remember, consider another form of birth control. Your boyfriend should also be using a condom every time you have sex to lower the chances even more.
