It's normal.

Your period could be brown for many reasons, and you may just have a light period.

If you're worried you can go to Planned Parenthood. They'll be able to help you and make sure nothing is wrong.

What are you worrying about: possible pregnancy or that brown discharge?
You can stop worrying about any possible pregnancy because you are probably not pregnant.
That brown discharge could be in fact your period but you will need to check that at your gynecologist. The condition is probably not urgent so you can wait until you get enough many for gynecological examination.
