How to stop developing a crush on a co-worker

Hi, F(20) here. Fyi, I'm still in college and I feel like I'm not ready for a relationship yet. I'm still figuring myself and I'm not financially stable enough to have relationships. Just having enough money to invest with spending time with my friends' already expensive enough.

So the thing is, I went to my aunt's place during school break to help them out with their business. And there's 2 trainees there, both male and a year or two older than me. I'll call them 1 and 2.

1 and 2 are already close since they're from the same school and started working at my aunt's at the same time. I came in the picture after two months.

I tried breaking the ice by joking and playing a few pranks on them. They didn't have any problem with that, and I felt like I can be more playful with 1 since he's more playful and joked back.

But 2. He's quieter and he doesn't really look at me in the eye. He can talk with me but I still feel a wall between us. Not that I mind.

But the more I see 2. I suddenly felt my heart beating and I became shy all of the sudden. This really made me can't concentrate on work and made me mess up. I have to work in the same team as those 2, that's why.

I don't want to date a co-worker. And I don't want a relationship. I don't want to pursue someone my family knows of too. So, I really need advice on how to stop getting buttterflies when I see or even think about him.

Any advice?

[Update] I took some advices from some of the comments and they really worked. Thanks!

Now I have no problem interacting with him as a co-worker
