Could Vaginal Itching Be Due To An STD?

Hi. About 5day's ago I was with this guy, it was getting quite heated. He surprised me by pulling his penis out and rubbing it on my vulva. It didn't last long because I didn't feel comfortable. My "down there" is a bit itchy. Could I have an std? HELP PLEASE. I'm scared.
