Yes, you can get pregnant this way, but it is fairly unlikely without penis-to-vagina penetration (intercourse) if there really was zero contact with your vagina. However, a man's penis does have something called "pre-ejaculate fluid" which may contain sperm, when his penis becomes hard, and keeping a penis away from a vagina (even accidentally) would be difficult to maneuver when stimulating other parts of the vulva and clitoris.
Rubbing genital-to-genital is considered a "risky sexual behavior", because there is a slight chance of pregnancy (if his penis only touched your clitoris and not your vagina; there is still the "pre-ejaculatory fluid" on his penis, even if it looked dry). The risk of pregnancy is increased if his penis touched your clitoris and your vagina. There is a high risk of spreading sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) and sexually transmitted infections (STIs) through genital-to-genital contact.
If you are "very young", have you been able to talk with a trusted relative to go to the Gynecologist to get on birth control and/or to have your first annual checkup? This is recommended for women who are sexually active---which you are. (Sexually active does not mean intercourse, but means engaging in behaviors that are "sexual").
Do you and your boyfriend have access to condoms? This would take most of the concern out of the equation for you, as you would still be able to engage in the genital-to-genital contact without fear of pregnancy (remember condoms are not 100% effective, and only cover part of the genitals). A Gynecologist can also talk with you about condoms and safer sex practices.
