Its okay. You said yourself the cricket came up from behind the T. Which, I'm sure startled it, T's have very bad eyesight. Wouldn't you react suddenly if you were startled? Your T did too. I don't think you need to automatically assume that your T has a bad attitude now.
I, personally, don't handle, but if you do and have with this particular T, just be careful. Pay attention to her body language when you go to pick her up, she will make it clear to you if this is not what she wants, just pay attention to her and you shouldn't have any problems.
