Can Oral Sex Induce Herpes Infection?

ok, i just had oral sex with someone who has herpes, but it wasn't active. Although I did use my tongue in the beginning, I finished with my finger. As soon as I finished I washed my hands and when I got home I brushed my teeth and rinsed my mouth. What do I expect to see or feel now
