In theory, this might risk hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection. If you were raised in the US, probably you were vaccinated against HBV, now routine among childhood immunizations. If so, you are protected. In addition, you say nothing about your partner. Like you, s/he might be vaccinated and therefore not infected. If not a gay man or injection drug user, the chance s/he has HBV is very low
