So my friend, (lets call him C) is not a best friend but a good one, and I want him to come over to dinner tonight at my house. I don't have a crush on him or anything, but yeah.And when I invite him over I don't want it to sound weird or anything like i'm asking him out--we are only in elementary school.
Help me please.

This does two things. First it allows his mother to know that you are going to ask him and to approve and to warn your mother of any food allergies he might have. Second his mother will prepare him for the fact that you will be inviting him that your mother called and asked if it was okay for you to come and have dinner with them. This makes it sound a little more as if your mother is asking through you for him to come and have dinner with you. It makes it easier on both of you.
Most important though is for you mom to call his mom before you ask him to dinner. This is very important as his mother must approve as must your mother be able to provide a meal that will allow for any food allergies he may have.

You can't control how he will perceive the invite but most would think of it as a friend who invited them somewhere.
