I (25f) celebrated my best friend's (24f) birthday at a bar. Drinks were flowing before getting here and she was definitely feeling it, while I was just slightly buzzed (I don't like drinking much.) While at the bar with all of her friends, she was chatting with a few strangers. While I was talking to one of our friends, I hear her say, "And I've been trying to fuck with this MOTHERFUCKER for the past FIVE YEARS!" This causes us to go back a both for a bit, me obviously taken aback and saying that won't happen. All of the friends and strangers turn on me and question me as to why we haven't done anything, haven't kissed, etc. when everyone thinks we're dating, like I owe something at least. I just get reiterating that I don't want to do that with one of my friends. My best friend just kept saying things like "All I want is in your pants" "I'm just tryna get fucked, it's not like I want to marry you." Her mood dropped when I just kept saying It's never going to happen and people were side eyeing me. I was always aware of the crush my friend had on me, but every time she flirts with me I turn it down and we haven't had a serious one on one conversation, so I feel like maybe I could've handled it better and not on their birthday? But I also feel like it's my body and I'm allowed to not fuck anyone I want and it's shitty that my friend has always had this motive of wanting me physically. Any advice?

TLDR: My best friend drunkenly called me out for not sleeping with her when that's what she's wanted for years. I turned her down kind of harshly in public on her birthday. AITAH?
