I suspect your ok. You didn't put it in gear and you did have some fluid in the trans. Go ahead and fill and check.

If your trans was in neutral you should be ok, but if it was in park you might have damage.
There is no fluid flow in park so no lubrication.
So top it up and try it you have nothing to loose.

sorry bout the  brain fart, I had one yrs ago while changing  oil, after draining it, I forget to fill it back up before cranking it.Had some buddies standing around drinking beer with me at the time!   hammer It kept shutting off after starting. Thats when I got a     \/][.  So don't be to hard on your self. The good thing is you want let it happen again!
