Can I get the flu? I was in a room with a boy that had the flu. I was in the room with him for approximately 45 minutes. He didn’t cough or sneeze.

If you are already resistant to virus which caused flu in that may then you may not get it. It is very difficult to predict if you will get flu or not. You have to just wait and see if you get any symptoms
Next Steps
Consult nearby physician for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required
