I found a mark on my boyfriends neck, is it a hickey?

Anonymous
I noticed a mark on my boyfriends neck and asked him what it was. He acted like he didn't know what it was and then said to me "Im white, I get blotchy marks sometimes." Then he said "see if its a hickey it will get darker tomorrow." He also said "why would i be shirtless if i had gotten a hickey and way trying to hide it from you?" The next day he showed me and it went completely away. When i did bring it up with him again, he got upset saying that if he did something with someone else, he wouldn't be with me. I know that he was at work that day, but he also works with a girl who is a little friendly. She told him a story one day about how she was going to give a guy head but then found out he had herpes. They also share memes once in a while on instagram. I dont know if im overeacting about their friendship and i dont want to do that.
Attached are different photos of the mark:
