If your call was inappropriate, he wouldn't have talked to you for 15 minutes. Nor would he have told you to call over the weekend if you needed to. Your call was not inappropriate.
The goal in therapy is not to NEVER call between sessions, it is to only call between sessions when you NEED to.
Your conflict between asking for emotional help and not calling is very interesting. That would be a good topic for therapy.
Transference? I don't know. I think that you are displaying your hesitance to ask for emotional help. What do you think he is feeling about your call? What did other in your past do when you asked for emotional help?
