A LONG while back I had taken plan B for a scare, after lots of waiting I had finally gotten my full period that lasted around 5 days. Then I was due for my next period on Christmas which was yesterday, but its still not here. I have gotten the symptoms I usually receive like discharge and some stomach aches, but its still not here. I have not had sexual contact since before I took plan b. Is this normal? Is my cycle just getting back on track or is this something I should be concerned about?
2nd period after plan B late, is this normal?

Impossible to say from here, to be honest. If you haven't already, then you need to do a pregnancy test, just in case the last bleeding was hormonal, rather than your actual period.
If you're not pregnant, then it's possible the last bleeding was the Plan B & not your period, & it's just messed your cycle up for a couple of months. It's a huge dose of hormone, so that's possible.
Were you always regular with your monthlies in the past? If you could sometimes be a little late or early, then you'll be more prone the the Plan B affecting you for longer than some women.

Well I mean after I took plan B I bled about a week later for like 2 days and I thought THAT WAS my period but I was wrong then about 3 weeks later I got my actual period that was full on and heavy like a normal period for about 5 days. And now here I am with symptoms of a period (I even FEEL like my period is coming) but its a day late. I am somewhat of an irregular, I sometimes get a day late or early. HOWEVER I should have elaborated on this; I never even had sex, my boyfriend had ejaculated on my stomach and breasts and I being the paranoid idiot I am thought sperm went to my vagina. In no way shape or form was his dick inside me. So I took plan b. Thank you for your response and your assistance.

Ah I understand. Well then it's just a case of the Plan B knocking your menstrual cycle out of sync for a while. It'll fall back into its normal pattern, but it just might take a little longer than some women. The bleeding after using the Plan B was just hormonal bleeding caused by the drug. That's common, & doesn't mean anything.

Thank you so much for helping me! This is the first time I've used plan B and you've helped me through this crazy roller coaster of a ride! I hope you've had a wonderful Christmas and an even better new year! Thank you again!

No problem at all. I know it can be quite daunting when you don't know what to expect. I was exactly the same.
Hope you're having a good Christmas & New Year, too :)
