When a fan saw Hollywood A-listers Emma Stone and Andrew Garfield grabbing a bite in the same restaurant as herself, she couldn't help but snap a pic of the two.

Perhaps because of the couple's reputation of being notoriously secretive and protective of their personal lives, Instagram user @alegb12 (Alejandra Garibay), instead of approaching the couple for a picture, opted instead to take a quick picture of her friend in the foreground and Stone and Garfield in the background.

Turns out the two knew all along that they were secretly being photographed--and were pretty good sports about it.

According to Garibay, she frequently sees celebrities walking around the city, but this was the first time that she decided to take a photo. Apparently, her brother is a big fan of Stone and she wanted to show him that she was eating sushi in the same restaurant, Lure Fishbar, with his "love."

"Ultimately I decided to just take one quickly instead of interrupting their dinner. I would never interrupt their dinner like, "Can I take your picture?" So I just wanted to take one really quickly and I guess they saw me."

The photograph has since gone viral. And as evidenced by the stealthy photo, where you Stone is seen smiling widely in the background and Garfield looking directly into the camera, the couple wasn't too upset about it. Even her friend doesn't seem to mind that her face is now currently bouncing around the Internet.

"She's just laughing a lot, she doesn't care."

Perhaps her good mood can be credited to Stone topping Forbes' List of Best Actors for the Buck? Or the success of her Broadway production, Cabaret?
