False positive?

My period is not due until Monday (4 days away), however, I took a pregnancy test today. When I took the test I didn’t have very good aim and pee’d on it. it appeared negative and I never timed it but it would have been over 3 minutes. about 30-45 minutes later when I went to tidy up the test had a very clear positive line. However I am concerned that this is not accurate given the fact that i 1) peed on the test window and 2) it was a little while after I took the test.
I took another and it was a clear negative.
I will obviously re test in the morning with my first pee of the day but just wondering if anyone else has ever had this? Should I disregard the positive as false?
Thanks!

Yeah you shouldn't really count a line that appears that late.

I always pee in a bowl and do the dip method otherwise I end up flooding the thing!

I agree, after the allotted time it could be an evaporation line
