A. Aidens body froze like an icicle and his heart pounded as he peered over the railing at the top of the skyscrapper.

Because it shows the cause for tensing up and having a fast heart beat. And the cause for this (peering over a skyscraper) would most likely give anyone fear, or in this situation, Aiden.
