Prick by staplewire

I used the computer of one of my officemate, inwas accidentally prick by staplewire in his table, immediatley check my skin, it is red, there is a mark of prick in my skin but is not bleeding i used my short and white paper to check if there is a bleeding in my skin , and after 30 minutes the redneas and mark gone,

In my situation there is a risk for me to contract the hepatitia virus? If my skin did not bleed
