No it will not be spread under the circumstances you mentioned. HIV only spread via direct contact of body fluids, which is not your case.

HIV is not spread by:
• Air or water
• Mosquitoes, ticks or other insects
• Saliva, tears, or sweat that is not mixed with the blood of a person with HIV
• Shaking hands; hugging; sharing toilets; sharing dishes, silverware, or drinking glasses; or engaging in closed-mouth or “social” kissing with a person with HIV
• Drinking fountains
• Other sexual activities that don’t involve the exchange of body fluids (for example, touching).
HIV can’t be passed through healthy, unbroken skin.
