Not only is it too soon to ask anyone to the prom, but you don't know her well enough, and are setting yourself up for a big fat no.
You need to be spending a lot more time saying hi in the halls! And not a shy mumbling hi, with no eye contact, as you rush by. A cheerful (but not fake) hi, a 'wow am I glad I ran into you' hi, with a smile and enthusiasm. You don't need to pause more than a fraction of a second, but enough to let her know that you wish she wanted to pause to talk. Then keep on walking, and don't look back. Do this at least 10 or 15 times over the next month, and then decide what the results are. Does she frown, or turn away? Then consider yourself out of the running. Does she say hi back, but without feeling? Then keep saying hi, but don't get your hopes up. If you see a tiny bit of hope, give her a compliment on your way by. Nice shirt, I like your hair that way, I like what you said in class.
Your fantasy about calling her to the side of the hall to tell her she's beautiful and so on is WAY over the top. (BTW, a couple of months is 2. Your prom is over 5 months away.) Take some deep breaths and go SLOOOOOOWWWWWLY. Practice what you will say. The way you are going is guaranteed failure. Remember - cheerful, friendly, and complimentary!
