no you have 24 hrs to take it... you are fine.... if you tend to forget try the patch (weekly) or nuva ring (monthly)

It's not "perfect use", but 2 hours late is not a serious boost to your risk, if it's just the one pill. If you routinely take your pills early or late, you can very well have problems.
What works for me is carrying them with me at all times (in my purse or backpack... if I have a wallet, I have my pills) and setting an alarm on my wristwatch for when I need to take it.

You should be fine! They suggest you take it at the same time everyday so that you remember to take it, and so that you don't go for super long periods of time without taking one. A couple of hours shouldn't hurt you at all you should still be protected. If you are worried use a second form of birthcontrol for the remainder of your cycle.

be cautious and use a condom anyway for a few days while active.
