What should I do?

I think I messed up with my walmart application. I think I should have applied for the Team Lead position because everybody acts like I am one. I work in the front end and according to my associates, I’m the experienced one. They love to ask questions to me about everything, day to day activities, what to do if a customer is being rude, even life advice. They seem to trust my wisdom I guess. It’s like I’m the work mother to them. The responsibility on my shoulders increased ever since they fired our Team Lead and they hired a new one. In fact, I applied to be the new one but got rejected, and they hired someone else. Some people thought it should have been me but I disagree. I don’t want to be someone who stabs people in the back. That’s something I never did in my life and I’m not planning to do so. If he got the job, he got the job and everybody should adapt, but nobody does. Even the new Team Lead who was hired recently. He asked me a question the other day (I won’t say the question because it’s kinda embarrassing) and I asked him how did he apply for this job, he said he did his walmart job application online and I told him well, you just need to open the description of your walmart job application and the answer of your question should be there. He seemed offended by the way I responded, but I don’t care anymore. Management made a choice by hiring him and everybody needs to live with that. Including him. I’m not going to do his job for him and get paid as a front end associate. No, that’s not going to happen. But it seems like they won’t let me go off these responsibilities and duties that are not in my job description. Don’t get me wrong, I love my job and I also love the people who I’m working with but I’m also tired of this. Because it feels like a daily reminder of what I’ve missed. And just like I said having the same paycheck is not helping either. I genuinely don’t know what to do except one thing, I definitely don’t want to leave this store. Not in a transfer or by leaving permanently. So what should I do? What would you do if you were in my shoes? I don’t want to break my associate's hearts and I also don’t want to offend the managers because I don’t want to get fired. It’s like I want to stand up for myself, but the weight on my shoulders won’t let me do so.
