Spooked Ball Python, won't eat. What should I do?

Today is feeding day for my Ball Python and I thawed the mouse out for about 2 hours (a little longer than I should have) and I came in here and dangled it in front of him and he took it without a second thought me and my brother cheered in delight about how well he is doing...

Then thing went horribly wrong. I went to shut his cage and the canopy piece I made fell and it startled the crap out of him, he dropped the mouse, and now he won't take it.

I tried waiting about 20 minutes and tried again, he didn't take it. So I've refroze it and don't know if I should ry it later on tonight or if I should wait a week until next feeding time, or just wait until tomorrow.

I don't know why that startled him so bad. His heart was beating so hard that he was literally bobbing everytime he took a breath. He isn't being aggressive though, so I guess that's a plus.
