"Right so my cousin said to me that my crush flirted with her but she has a boyfriend so obviously she laughed it off." - I don't know nor have I ever met your cousin and I bet money that laugh was a lie, LOL.
"My auntie who was at the family party told me that my cousin told her she thought my crush was good looking and joking around said she couldn’t get in there with him due to me. " - This confirmed the laugh was a lie.
She wants him MORE than she wants her current boyfriend.
You also have to read what you typed carefully... "said she couldn’t get in there with him due to me".
I look at BOTH what was said and wasn't said. Not once has she said, "He's not interested in me." So while you didn't see them flirting you have to ask is he sending her signals that she has a realistic shot at him?
Because she sounds very confident she can get him.
Does he know you two are related? If no, you'd probably want to send that signal so he knows to leave her alone.
She's not going to stop feeling the way she feels about him for you or she wouldn't have started to begin with.
If she knows he's not interested in her, she'll move on and this ends.
But... he's just a crush. A kiss isn't a commitment nor is him "liking" you. He's single and has free reign.
If you start a relationship with him, you can't confide in her with your issues with him, she benefits from you two not working out.
My advice is you let him know the situation and that if he's interested in you, he should stop entertaining your cousin. Because she's not going to stop until HE stops it.
If he doesn't stop it, it's because he likes the attention. THAT's what I mean by entertaining other women.
I hope I've been helpful, be safe and good luck.

I think your crush didn't know you liked him so he asked your cousin out. When he realized you liked him he was staying with you
