Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome in "Ask a Doctor".
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Based on your history, having contact with his blood just with your finger(without open wound) I think you shouldn't worry because there is absolutly no risk for HIV.
Except the fact that he has e undetectable viral load because of the treatment you should know that HIV cannot live outside the body just few minutes.

Hope I have answered your query.
