Brief Answer:
No risk of HIV.
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
The risk of getting HIV without penetrative sex by doing only hand job is very unlikely and the survival of HIV virus outside the human body or in an open environment is very difficult and it will die within a few minutes.
Allay fear and anxiety related to HIV as you are not at risk of getting it.
Hope I have answered your query. For any further query feel free to ask me any time and I am here to help you out straight way.

Brief Answer:
The risk is practically zero.
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
HIV virus cannot survive in an open environment outside the human body so the risk of getting the infection through the exposure you had mentioned is practically not possible.
Don't get worried or scared, forget about the episode and move on in life happily.
