Does wood creep over time?

I had a 6x6 PT porch beam warp and pull the rail away from the other wall. I added a cleat, used Timberlocs and a wrench to force everything back in place, and screwed the railing into place. Will the warped beam eventually relax into its new position? I'm wondering if I should leave the cleat or if I can take it off in days/weeks/months.
