I see him everyday, I go to his house to see his sister, I have time alone with him every week. I know he's never had a girlfriend, or kissed a girl before. (I get the whole gay possibility but even his sister doesn't think he is.) If he knows though, why hasn't he asked me if its true? Does he not want to embarrass me? Is he not interested? What's going on? I think I deserve at least an 'sorry I don't like you like that'?

Guys at his age are often too shy and fear rejection, and considering he's never been with a girl before that's probably the case here.
When I was his age, anything short of a girl literally telling me she liked me wasn't enough for me to risk asking her out.
Fortunately for me the girls I liked were bold enough to do so.

 Let's start with this
he isn't looking for a relationship.
HE knows you like him... because his best friend said so... but you have never talked to him about it so he only knows second hand...
you see him every day and you say you have time alone with him... what does this mean... "time alone with him"
IF he's not interested in a relationship what do you expect him to say? Why would he care if you like him if he's not interested in a relationship?
You expect him to tell you how he feels based on what SOMEONE ELSE is saying he knows. YOU HAVE NO CLUE what he thinks or feels because you have NOT talked to HIM.
You need to talk to him about it... leave his sister and his best friend out of it.
