Just because you haven't talked to him doesn't mean he has cheated. Don't become paranoid and don't interrogate him when he returns. Just ask if he had a nice time, what he saw/did while he was there, etc. Ask about the trip, NOT who he met.
To your question: If you want to make sure he knows it's not a date, TELL HIM! Tell him you have a boyfriend and that you're cool hanging out as just friends, but nothing more. If it's true, tell him you'd be more comfortable hanging out in a group (and make sure that it's not a group of couples - that would put pressure on you &/or him, and it would give the false impression of a date).
Basically, what I'm saying is not to jump to conclusions - don't think your boyfriend is cheating unless he has given you a reason to. It's okay for him to hang out with girls as much as it's okay for you to hang out with guys. Just make sure that the guy you hang with knows you have a boyfriend and that NOTHING will happen between the two of you. As long as he knows it's just a friendship thing, there is NO reason you can't go with him.
Have fun :)
