He means a lot to me and so I really want to go this dance together because I think we can take our relationship to the next level if he takes me. he is a really amazing guy that i've been flirting on and off with over the past year. I know he likes me, and he's not a ladies' man, so I don't think I have a lot of competition. But I need to ensure he asks me, so how do I hint that I want him to? is there any way you can think of to subtly hint that we should go to prom?

You hit it off already, and he might get-up the nerve and ask someone else. You should get first-dibs. Shy-guys or the types that leave you hanging; often will disappoint you.
Bring it up sort of matter-of-factually. "Hey, I've been thinking about saving-up for my prom dress. I plan to buy a really pretty dress! I wonder who will ask me? Would you?"
Even if he doesn't answer you then and there; you've planted it in his brain. He knows you would probably say yes, since you brought it up. That makes it all the easier when that time rolls around. If you still feel the same way about him by then.
What if some other guy asks you and he doesn't? That's the thing. So you might have to get-up the nerve to ask him!

 Probably best to wait until it’s relevant - like when prom starts being mentioned properly.
Also, as HoneyPie says, you’re not in a relationship to “take to the next level”; you’re not even sure he definitely likes you that way - you just like flirting. Your prom will be ruined if you get your hopes up about “the next level” and he doesn’t feel the same.
If he doesn’t ask you, ask him or let it go and go with friends or someone else :)

 "Prom season" is anywhere from March until June. So you have a few months.
And I think you need to hold your horses. You talk about "taking YOUR relationship to the next level"... but you aren't dating. So in essence you are NOT in a relationship with him AT ALL.
Flirting is NOT a relationship.
But if you want things to progress, then why not... one of the times you two are flirting, put on a big smile and tell him... Put on a big smile and you really should ask me to the Prom. See what happens.
