I'm probably gonna come off like a boob nazi, and definitely not tell you what you want to here.... but...
Babies have needs. If their needs aren't met they don't just go away. It seems like forever now, but it really is such a short time... 14 mos is young to wean, especially if he's not into it at all. The more you push him away the more clingy and frightened he's going to become.
Sleep/nurse with him in one bed, let Flint get the sleep he needs in another. Wean the baby when he's more ready.
