hey youst718,
Firstly, denying or wanting to *change* your feelings is not healthy. I think what you feel about this guy is normal and more importantly, sometimes it comes after getting to know someone on a deeper level. You say that he's like an older brother to you. Now that you've trusted him and you two are close, your guards are pretty much down and attraction is building. Actually, I'm not surprised that you like him. And although to a certain extent age is a factor here, all that age dictates though is how we deal with things.
This may be a strange question, but why is he touching you in the first place? Is it like a hug or like when you guys are just messing around? I'd say if his touching is inciting your feelings, definitely talk to him about it. Especially if it's making it hard to deal with the feelings that come up. And since you guys are like brother and sister, talking about these things in confidence will be easier than if you were just two friends.
It's really unhealthy to try to deny or suppress your feelings. It's also wrong to just let them go free and let your mind run with them. The best and most healthy way is to just stop and think about what and why about your feelings. Then, talk to the guy and tell him. I wouldn't jump into talking to him until you spend some time in prayer and guidance with your FOC.
Hope that answers your question. Send me a private message if you wanna talk this out further away from bublic ejebshan eyes. ;D

Talk to him and tell him that your feelings have changed, and that all these hugs are kinda helping them along. It really is better to bring these things to light rather than hiding away from them.
