No one will believe you. For future reference, the only thing to say to police officers is nothing at all.
The outcome will depend upon what admissible evidence, defenses and arguments your attorney can make in plea bargaining, motions, or trial. You saying 'nuh-uh' is not of much value in contradicting police testimony. If this is in SoCal, and you're serious about getting counsel, feel free to contact me.
