Scarlett was scared when Jacob asked her for a chance, but the words that spilled from his lips made it impossible for her to say no. He made himself vulnerable so that she could see he was being genuine and she appreciated him opening up to her and showing another part of himself.
She wanted to have a family with him, more than anything, and if this was a start, then she was willing to try it with him. She was curious about seeing what the future held for them.
