As dangerous as HIV is, it is not a very contageous virus. Very rare for transmission through oral sex. Much easier to get the herpes simplex virus. The viral count in the oral cavity is really low compared to the blood stream. You should be ok. Just take the test and get it over with. If you do it again just make sure your partner doesn't brush or floss right before, (bleeding occurs), just have her use listerine. Same goes to you.
Just some friendly health advise.

a friend of mine was worried once he went to the doctor, the doc just laffed at him and said he had more chance of catching it with rubber gloves on inspecting a non HIV patient than my friend did from having unprotected sex with a girl

Chill man, enjoy life
