Any new, abnormal or unexplained vaginal bleeding requires medical attention. This may have been a nonspecific change in your menstrual pattern in response to whatever made you "really sick". There are too many possible explanations to guess at the cause, but probably it has nothing to do with the non-penetrating sexual contact with your bf. To be safe, see a doctor about both problems. Good luck.

Menstrual irregularities are not uncommon and anovulatory cycle is a common cause. If you miss more than two periods it would be time to see your doctor. If you do not wish to be pregnant, use contraception all the time. You may consider implanted contraceptive or an IUD.
