He just didn't want to do it for whatever reasons so he chose to play word games. Think about it when somebody ask or invite you to do something you want to do it's an automatic Yes not a debate on question vs. invite so they can try to figure out how to tell you they would rather NOT.

It sounds like an invitation to me.
I think Seductrix could be right. Perhaps he just played with it as a question for other reasons, even though he knew it was an invitation.

People can interpret that differently. Generally what you said would be understood as a polite invitation pending the fact that the person is available.
But in some small cases, people would interpret this differently and would think this is a question being asked, can possibly happen with people from Asian/European regions in US due to differing backgrounds and people seeing this differently.

That is clearly an invitation. Think about it, why would you ask it unless it was? I mean if they say yes would you NOT invite them?

an invite is a question, its asking if you would like to celerate an occation with them.
